A current measurement device includes: four or more triaxial magnetic sensors arranged to have predefined positional relationships such that magnetism-sensing directions thereof are parallel to each other; and a calculator configured to calculate currents flowing through a pair of conductors to be measured, which are arranged in proximity to each other, based on detection results of the four or more triaxial magnetic sensors and the positional relationships between the four or more triaxial magnetic sensors, the currents flowing in mutually opposite directions.

Current measurement device for measuring currents flowing in mutually opposite directions

The current measurement device () includes a first sensor (SE) configured to detect a direct current magnetic field and a low-frequency alternating current magnetic field generated due to the current () flowing through the conductor (MC) to be measured, a second sensor (SE) configured to detect alternating current magnetic fields from a low frequency to a high frequency generated due to the current (I) flowing through the conductor to be measured, a first calculator (A) configured to calculate the current flowing through the conductor to be measured from a detection result of the first sensor using distance information indicating a distance (r) between the first sensor (SE) and the conductor (MC) to be measured, a second calculator () configured to calculate the current flowing through the conductor to be measured from a detection result of the second sensor, and a synthesizer () configured to synthesize a calculation result of the first calculator with a calculation result of the second calculator.
